The more traditional name for Royal purple is Tyrian Purple, from the city states of Tyre and Sidon of ancient Phoenicia. The purple dye was made from the excrement of a certain sea snail, and the secret of this dye was a Phoenician secret.
Due to this monopoly, the dye was incredibly expensive, and where its alternate name, royal purple originated.
This made the Phoenician states one of the foremost Mediterranean trade empires, and what eventually brought them into conflict with Rome, and led to their ultimate conquest and destruction (the salting of Carthage).
Amazing choice of colour, because it has an incredible history behind it. Imagine that, a color that founded a rival empire, a colour which led to an inevitable war.

You’re welcome
All the colours from antiquity to the middle ages have origins behind them. Some of them are quite interesting like lapiz blue (they ground lapiz lazuli into a paste).
Have a read on wikipedia sometime! They can be really fascinating!
